Predicting operability in children with acyanotic congenital heart diseases and severe pulmonary hypertension
Conclusion Oxygen saturation on pulse oximetry of ⩾94% in children with VSD and 83% with CAVSD accurately identified operable patients. This criterion may be used as an alternate to invasive assessment of pulmonary vascular resistance. Outcome of operable patients having PVRI>6WU in room air is good and similar to those with PVRI<6WU. (Source: Egyptian Pediatric Association Gazette)

Growth in infants with congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency: An analysis of the factors affecting height
Conclusion Poor growth in infants with salt wasting CAH was not related to age at diagnosis and start of therapy, doses of glucocorticoid, fludrocortisones, or saline therapy. Male sex and mean basal length SDS below −2 were associated with a more favorable growth catch up. Further prospective studies with inclusion of intercurrent illnesses and nutritional status are needed. (Source: Egyptian Pediatric Association Gazette)
